I tried this without printing out the recipe, thinking I would never have the occassion to make it again.Everyone loved it and they went out and bought more squash wanting me to make it again. Then I had to find the recipe again. It is wonderful, even squash haters love it. I didn't change a thing, the recipe is perfect as it is.

This was really good.This was really good. Even my son liked it and he's not a big squash fan. I added 1/2 tsp salt to help bring out the flavors.

Perfect Side Dish & So DeliciousI made this for company last night and there wasn't a bite left! I cut the butternut squash in half, took the seeds out, oiled it, salt and peppered it and baked the butternut squash upside down in the oven for 50 minutes. I added a clove of minced garlic and three slices of bacon bits and followed the rest of the recipe. The presentation was totally awesome in the squash and tasted even better. This is a keeper and goes great with Roasted Chicken.

Very pleasantly surprised with this recipe!Very pleasantly surprised with this recipe! As other reviews have said, a little salt is a good addition, as well as basil, oregano, and a little black pepper. I may add some red onion instead of chives the next time for a little extra zing. Great vegetarian dinner choice!

Usually when I make butternut squash, I am pretty plain/basic with Butter & S/P - so I decided to try something different and just glad I did! The mixture is so creamy and perfect! Try it forsure!

Wow, this was so good!Wow, this was so good! I cooked the squash most of the way in the oven and then finished it up in the microwave because I needed the oven for something else. It was very tasty and and easy to fix. We plan to make this recipe again over the holidays!

Really good, but cooking time on squash was well over 1 hour and crackers burned.Really good, but cooking time on squash was well over 1 hour and crackers burned. So allow plenty of time for cooking squash and put the crackers on during last 5 minutes.
